Spécification (norme technique)vignette|Exemple de spécifications relatives à un appareil de sécurité. vignette|Plaque de tare d'un camion. Une spécification est un ensemble explicite d'exigences à satisfaire par un matériau, produit ou service. Si un matériau, produit ou service ne parviennent pas à satisfaire à une ou plusieurs des spécifications applicables, il peut être désigné comme étant hors spécification.
Vérification formelleIn the context of hardware and software systems, formal verification is the act of proving or disproving the correctness of intended algorithms underlying a system with respect to a certain formal specification or property, using formal methods of mathematics. Formal verification can be helpful in proving the correctness of systems such as: cryptographic protocols, combinational circuits, digital circuits with internal memory, and software expressed as source code.
Revue de codevignette|Illustration de programmation en binôme, une méthode de revue de code La revue de code (calque de l'anglais code review), ou révision de code, est l'examen systématique du code source d'un logiciel. Cet examen peut être comparé à la critique effectuée par un comité de lecture, dont le but est de trouver des bugs ou des vulnérabilités potentielles ou de corriger des erreurs de conception afin d'améliorer la qualité, la maintenabilité et la sécurité du logiciel.
Architectural engineeringArchitectural engineering or architecture engineering, also known as building engineering, is an engineering discipline that deals with the engineering systems - such as structural, mechanical, electrical, lighting, environmental, climate control, telecommunications, security, and other technologies used in buildings. From reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to the construction of resilient buildings, architectural engineers are at the forefront of addressing several major challenges of the 21st century.
Safety engineeringSafety engineering is an engineering discipline which assures that engineered systems provide acceptable levels of safety. It is strongly related to industrial engineering/systems engineering, and the subset system safety engineering. Safety engineering assures that a life-critical system behaves as needed, even when components fail. Analysis techniques can be split into two categories: qualitative and quantitative methods. Both approaches share the goal of finding causal dependencies between a hazard on system level and failures of individual components.
Manufacturing engineeringManufacturing engineering or production engineering is a branch of professional engineering that shares many common concepts and ideas with other fields of engineering such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, and industrial engineering. Manufacturing engineering requires the ability to plan the practices of manufacturing; to research and to develop tools, processes, machines and equipment; and to integrate the facilities and systems for producing quality products with the optimum expenditure of capital.
Physiologie sportivevignette|200px|Les cyclistes sont connus pour utiliser la physiologie sportive pour optimiser leurs entraînements et leurs performances. La physiologie sportive est la physiologie de l'activité physique, c'est-à-dire, l'étude des réponses et des adaptations chroniques à un grand nombre de conditions d'exercice physique. De plus, la plupart des physiologistes sportifs étudient l'effet de l'exercice sur des pathologies, et les mécanismes par lesquels ces exercices peuvent réduire ou renverser la progression d'une maladie.
Nuclear flaskA nuclear flask is a shipping container that is used to transport active nuclear materials between nuclear power station and spent fuel reprocessing facilities. Each shipping container is designed to maintain its integrity under normal transportation conditions and during hypothetical accident conditions. They must protect their contents against damage from the outside world, such as impact or fire. They must also contain their contents from leakage, both for physical leakage and for radiological shielding.
Aerobic exerciseAerobic exercise (also known as endurance activities, cardio or cardio-respiratory exercise) is physical exercise of low to high intensity that depends primarily on the aerobic energy-generating process. "Aerobic" is defined as "relating to, involving, or requiring oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen to meet energy demands during exercise via aerobic metabolism adequately. Aerobic exercise is performed by repeating sequences of light-to-moderate intensity activities for extended periods of time.

Hierarchical organizationA hierarchical organization or hierarchical organisation (see spelling differences) is an organizational structure where every entity in the organization, except one, is subordinate to a single other entity. This arrangement is a form of a hierarchy. In an organization, the hierarchy usually consists of a singular/group of power at the top with subsequent levels of power beneath them. This is the dominant mode of organization among large organizations; most corporations, governments, criminal enterprises, and organized religions are hierarchical organizations with different levels of management, power or authority.
HiérarchieLe concept de hiérarchie tiré des vocables grec hieros (« sacré ») et archos (« commencement », ou « ce qui est premier ») ou plus certainement arkhê (« pouvoir », ou « commandement ») s'applique à plusieurs domaines, physiques ou moraux. Définition économique : fait qu'un individu A puisse obtenir d'un individu B qu'il serve les intérêts de son supérieur plutôt que ses intérêts propres. Étymologiquement parlant, la notion de hiérarchie est basée sur le caractère plus ou moins sacré attribué à une personne, un concept ou une chose.
